Proud of you PAULIN

Thankless nights up all alone Grateful for all you've done Late night talks up on the phone Thank you for holding on i. I'm proud of you And everything that you've been through For getting up Even though there’s no light at the window For breathing Under the conditions you were set to For existing in Wherever the wind took you I'm proud of you Even though you were never set to Succeed or success Nor did you have anyone to lean to I'm proud of you when everything was new You followed through I'm proud of you [Chorus] Even though there are no promises of gold You’ll still be looking to that old rainbow In the rain you’ll be standing while you let your tears fall In the rain you’ll be standing while the thunders they roll ii. I'm proud of you Of who you were back then and the current you There isn't a measure on what you can and cannot do What you need, should and have to do to be worth existing Your life isn't a measure of your achievements How you turn with the hand you were dealt with These expectations they are problems These expectations are between you and your creator You are blameless Thinking about what you could’ve done better
